Wife and children join Quinn in court action
Anglo denies the claims but said that if the family succeeds, the bank will seek “relief” against Mr Quinn and two other men who, it claims, were central to the management of the Quinn group and to an alleged strategy to make investments of €750 million to fund contract for difference positions in Anglo prior to the end of 2007.
Anglo claims the three were actively involved in the funding and security transactions that form the factual matrix of the case. It claims they had made statements which they intended the bank to act upon and which they knew to be false or which were made recklessly. These included claims that Quinn family members were willing and able to provide various share pledges and guarantees.
